Nov 15th, 2010 · 68 Comments

If you are getting an error that ‘d3dx9_43.dll is missing’ while starting an application in Windows 7 :

directx error 001

Follow the following steps to fix it:

1. Go to Microsoft’s website to get ‘DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer‘.

Click ‘Download’ to download the ‘dxwebsetup.exe’ file.

2. Execute the downloaded ‘dxwebsetup.exe’ file and it will download and install the optional DirectX components.

Click ‘Finish’ when done. Try running your application now, the ‘d3dx9_43.dll is missing’ error will not appear again.

    another way to solve this problem:

    download d3dx9_43.dll file

    http://en.mlfdll.com/d3dx9_43.dll

    and put it in game directory or in “c:windowssystem32” folder

    another solution is to download d3dx9_43.dll
    and replace it in “C:WindowsSystem32” folder
    then the error will disappear ..

    Saw the same tutorial on another site so tried it but had no luck, but thanks to this one giving a direct link at the top to the DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer, I managed to do it again, only this time properly, I am now very happy to say I can play Morrowind GOTY even I it refuses to acknowledge my joy-pad’s thumbstick’s existence :L Again, many thanks to the website and finder of the solution 🙂 happy Garion

    I cannot install the directx components. A pop up box said that ” A cabinet file neccessary for installation cannot be trusted. Please verify the crypthographic services are enable and the cabinet file certificate is valid”…..What is that mean?
